What a terrific, funny—and timely—read!” - Patton Oswalt, Actor/Comedian/Writer "Gorgeous, epic and profoundly poetic. Juni Ba's MOBILIS is a rare very special jewel of art and storytelling. A legendary work that is at once modern and timeless. Behold its mighty might!" - Jorge R. Gutierrez, Emmy and Annie award winning animator, painter, voice actor, writer, and director "Like the rising seas, MOBILIS is heavy with mystery and unexpected life.
